Please note that for this article "Atheism" also includes agnostics, deists, pagans, wiccans... in other words non-religious.

You will notice this is a statement of fact. And to be fact it is supported by evidence (see references below). Now you can have "faith" that this is not true, but by the very definition of faith, that is just wishful thinking.

You most likely are misinterpreting a old document having little to do with the existence of God.

It's refreshing that you think of the Bible like that! Keep it up!

Twelve names - not all of them atheists.

It pales besides the number of Christians who have killed when in power.

Also, those Christians killed people using the technology of the time. If the technology of the 20th century had been available to Christians in power, the carnage would have been horrific.

<quoted text>the buybull says god is like a heavenly father...and that he is pure goodness......WELL I WOULD DO ANYTHING I COULD TO KEEP MY KIDS FROM HAR,,....GUESS GOD DEOSNT CARE ONE BIT ABOUT HIS SO CALLED KIDS....

You're right, he doesn't.

Yet being a Christian means believing the god of the Bible fed the Israelites with food from heaven, yet he does nothing to feed the 25,000 who die every day from starvation.

More like we have pointed out the emperor isn't wearing any clothes while the believers argue what color his cloak is. Reason is winning the day as more churches close daily at record numbers.<quoted text>

Lol, nice one. I guess this question is not for the atheists, but more specifically empiricists. Is truth something imagined up by men too? If so, yet here we are fighting for this make belief emperor of truth. Or is there a metaphysical aspect to truth? Just incase, i come with a Definition: empiricism - the doctrine that all knowledge is derived from sense experience. Closing churches? well, may reason be with you and all the best on your crusade..lol forgive me, i know a poor choice of words, couldn't help it.haha.

It's like I can almost read their mind. It would go like this... Hey! Ann Coulter on Fox News said atheism is a religion of non belief! And that they are more dogmatic and unreasonable than most Christians! You atheists are supposed to be blown away by this argument and admit that atheism is indeed a religion! Hey dammit! Why ain't you guys doing what she and all those apologetic websites said you'd do?!! Holy sht now you are asking questions trying to make me use reason? How dare you! Best just repeat again and again that you are a religion and run like hell when asked a question... Ya that's the ticket!<quoted text>

Fox News is the first hint that the person suffers from masochistic tendcies, severe self esteem issues and is certainly not the brightest bulb in the package.

They have pat answers that they think are so profound, simple semantics for the simple minded....*sighs*

<quoted text>I've always supported (mostly in my heart) the Israeli people who seem possessed with an admirable courage and determination. A "survival of the fittest" culture living in an extremely hostile environment. In reality, I know nothing of their politics

"I often hear them accuse Israel of Judaizing Jerusalem. That's like accusing America of Americanizing Washington, or the British of Anglicizing London. You know why we're called 'Jews'? Because we come from Judea."http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/b/b...

<quoted text>Don't worry, it ain't so. Listen to Benjamin Netanyahu for awhile and your tummy will calm down;0)"I often hear them accuse Israel of Judaizing Jerusalem.
